elbow – great expectations lyrics
seems everyday
i’m gettin’ harder pressed
to find a reason to shave
watchin’ the hours
just slippin’ away
no motivation to get out of bed
and carry on the charade
caught in a dream that’s goin’ astray
oh, all those great expectations
seems they never work out, never work out
the way that i plan
all those great expectations
why they never work out, never work out
i can’t understand
and just when i think
that things are goin’ right
i get a call from l.a.
sorry to say we’re changin’ your song
i try to reason
but i can’t get through
they’re gonna do it their way
what can i say
they’ve never been wrong
oh, all those great expectations
seems they never work out, never work out
the way that i plan
all those great expectations
why they never work out, never work out
i can’t understand
life is just a game of chance
i think somebody said so
sometimes you get a hula hoop
sometimes you get an edsel
oh, all those great expectations
seems they never work out, never work out
the way that i plan
all those great expectations
why they never work out, never work out
i can’t understand
